Washington, D.C. + SENATOR HENRY M. JACKSON
. Dear Senator Jackson:: *- . co os
Your staff may scream not to touch: this request .
with.a ten. foot vole,, but as a former prosecutor yow ns
might have an. answer forthconming..
#
Ask the C.I.4.. (Central Intelligence Agency)}1if they:
or any of their operating companies have ever trained pilots,,
. - personnel to fly, Boing 2727's in low level flight dropping
pereoneil and supplies in: other inaccessible places.. .
r |
‘Ask them how many-pilots they have thus trained?
Ask them how, many,rof these men: have returned to
private 1ife?*
Ask them if they: ever used these’ places to drop~
Teiwan personnel over south |China??
This has to do with tne $200,000 hijacking of a 727...
’ In Seot.. on a 727 Northwest orient flight from
Minneapdbts to Seattle,, with a seat partner from Miles City
TO Missoula,. who said he had flown. a 727."Tor the military’
and mad¢numerous low level’ drops of personnel and supplies.
Had he ever jumped from a 72727 "Yes ». we alt had to jump.in
training..It was @ heli of a thrill.:
But Boeing's PiR.. man. fairly screamed there hasn''t
been. a singe 727 in the military inventory.. There hasn't
béen a single military pilot trained in. a 727, nor have they
ever been used in jump school.. No,, there has never been
a flight manual vorepared,. telling how. to set flaps for jumps.
If the military hadtver used such a program, we would have
had a: screaming headline and a full page story with pictures...
. At Sandpoint,,. Idaho, this "bilot"' got back on the plane
with four identically dressed mon, whom IY believe were ULS.D.A..
"smoke jumpers"). Two of them sat across the aisle, and the
other two went forward where the pilot sald he could arrange
for them to set together and talk. Ohe of them fits the heighte-
Sth" to 622"). and slim.. And I was ldaoking into‘his face when
they discussed seating arrangements .. 16Y-$/- 1430
I’ believe the man's: story... And if the C.I.4.. or Taiwan.
ever flew a 727 im southeast Asia,. the Chinese intelligence-——____. b6
would have: known about it. Go why hide the story cw ae
